The angular correlation of photons from positrons annihilating in solid and liquid Na, Ga, In, and Sn has been measured. The results are interpreted in terms of a mean free path of the conduction electrons. These mean free paths are compatible with values derived from electrical conductivity measurements except for Ga which shows anomalous behavior.
